How is crabs treated?
Recommended Treatment Permethrin cream: The cream can be applied to the affected area and washed off after 10 minutes. Permethrin is available over the counter. Do not use for treatment of eyelashes or eyebrows. Lindane shampoo (Kwell®) This shampoo that is applied to the affected area and thoroughly washed off after 4 minutes. It is available only by prescription. Do not use for treatment of eyelashes or eyebrows. NOTE: Lindane (Kwell®) is potentially harmful and may cause central nervous system complications, even though no problems have been known to occur in treatments limited to the recommended 4-minute period. Lindane should not be used on broken skin. Lindane is not recommended to be used by the following people: women who are pregnant or lactating children under 2 years of age people with seizure disorders people with extensive dermatitis or known allergies to any ingredients found in Lindane. Pyrethrins with piperonyl butoxide This shampoo is applied to the affected area and washed off after 10 minutes. It is available over the counter. Do not use for treatment of eyelashes or eyebrows. For infested eyelids and eyebrows an ointment is available by prescription. Even if treatment for crabs is successful, you may still have some itching as a result of a skin irritation or allergic reaction. If so, you can use hydrocortisone cream to help stop the itching. What Else Do I Need to Do to Get Rid of Crabs? Even after treatment, most nits or eggs will remain attached to the hair. Nits can be removed with fingernails or a fine-tooth comb. Wear clean clothing and sleep between freshly laundered bed linens after treatment. Notify sex partners so that they can be treated. Abstain from sex until treatment is successful and all partners have been treated. After you are treated, your clothes and bedding may still be infested with crabs. To get rid of them, you will want to wash all your clothes, bed linens, sleeping bags, etc. in hot water (at least 130-degrees F). Dry on hot cycle for at least 20 minutes. Items that cannot be washed can be placed in a plastic bag for two weeks or dry-cleaned to ensure decontamination. It is not necessary to decontaminate furniture or fumigate living areas. If desired, furniture can be vacuumed or treated with a bug spray containing an agent active against crabs. If after about a week you still see lice, do the treatment again. Make sure that all bedding and clothing have been washed and dried on a hot cycle, dry-cleaned or decontaminated in a plastic bag for two weeks. Also make sure that that sex partners have been treated. Contact your health care provider if treatment still does not work. How can I keep from getting crabs? Abstinence (not having sex). Mutual monogamy with an uninfected partner (having sex with only one partner who only has sex with you). Limit the number of sex partners to reduce your risk of all STDs. Although latex condoms do not provide effective protection against crabs, condom use is effective in preventing other STDs. Why worry? Crabs, in general, does not cause anything more than discomfort and inconvenience. Occasionally, secondary bacterial infections may occur due to aggressive scratching. Do I need to talk to my partner about crabs? Yes. Telling a partner can be hard. If you find out you have crabs, it is important that you talk to your partner as soon as you can so she or he can get treatment. It is possible to pass crabs back and forth. If you get treated and your partner doesn't, you may get infected again. |

If you don't want your boyfriend to know you have crabs I assume he did not give them to you, so how did you get them? |
